Learn how to make your own natural soap using Babylonstoren’s olive and essential oils as inspiration. The experience includes a visit to our farm’s aromatic fields to harvest rosemary, lavender, Cape may or whatever’s in season.

In the Scented Room, you’ll learn how essential oils are distilled before using these in your own soap. Practical advice on the intricacies of natural soapmaking, such as infusing, preparing and casting soap will be shared by Babylonstoren’s in-house compounder, Gavin Hendriks. Creating and blending of iconic Babylonstoren products such as moisturisers will be explored.

Guests get to take home their own creations at the end of the day.
